In the latest update of the Fitbit app, the Dashboard that customers interact with daily underwent a huge visual downgrade. It is far less appealing to look at, and harder to quickly see where you are with your daily goals. Please allow Customers to choose their dashboard, similar to how customers can choose their fitbits clock faces. It makes sense to at least allow a choice between the new version and the old version of the dashboard. PLEASE consider this.

The new Charge 5 only has an American date format when set to an English speaking country, despite having an English date format for many non-English speaking countries. Please change the date format for the UK to DD/MM.

When will it be availible to reply with iOS for apple users. I noticed Versa can reply to text but it says only for android. I will never switch to android and the reply to text is the only thing that Fitbit is missing. Apple Watch does all the same plus reply to text and taking calls. Big miss on Fitbits part.

After long time Fitbit released a Spotify app for Ionic/Versa (for now only on Versa 2). See this suggestion now marked as solved.
However this app does not allow to download music for offline listening (for example while working-out).
Hence this new suggestion.

It's been almost a month now and a huge product like the Fitbit has only a couple of apps, and one music app. So I was hoping you guys can add the YouTube Music app, since it allows access to a huge selection of music videos and audios. Also the app have 100 song downloaded for offline use. It chooses them based on your taste and updates them every now and then.

I'm starting a new thread to bring back the old dashboard since the previous one was closed to comments and is no longer being considered by the developers. I can't express how much I loathe the new "look." It's cluttered, difficult to navigate, and it enrages me anew each time I go to check if I've got my dot for the hour. Please give us the option of using the "classic" view. Failing that, give us the option to remove or edit what we're tracking. I'm in menopause, but it won't let me remove the Female Health. I don't track how much water I drink, or what I eat, but those are permanently visible (I could edit them out of the old dashboard). Please return to something clean and functional. If not, I'm sure I can find another tracker that will suit. I've been with Fitbit for over five years but updates like this do not inspire brand loyalty.

I do regular scheduled exercise classes. Cardio load suggestions take no account of these planned regular activities. Daily targets should factor in this information so that guidance is more accurate and better aligned to my routine. Users should be able to enter their planned exercise for the next 1-7 days

Hey everyone! I have got a Fitbit Charge 2 and I have already downloaded the app into my iphone. As long as I am tracking the macros, I would appreciate if the app shows me also how many grams of protein, fat and carbs I eat, not only the percentage as it does now. I know I can check it in the dashboard on the internet via my macbook, but I think it would be really useful to make it possible in the app as well. What do you think?

Pokemon Go is soon to roll out a feature allowing external apps (namely Apple Health and Google Fit) to track steps and distance without needing to have the Pokemon Go app running. It would be great if Fitbit's services could be supported as well. As it stands, Google Fit and Apple Health do not officially work with Fitbit.

Millions of people experience irregular or abnormal heartbeats, called arrhythmias, at some point in their lives. Most of the time, they are harmless and happen in healthy people free of heart disease. However, some abnormal heart rhythms can be serious or even deadly. Having other types of heart disease can also increase the risk of arrhythmias.
Now I fully understand that Fitbit products are not medical devises, yet they do help people get and stay healthy. And now with more people wearing their fitbits for longer there is a great opportunity for these products to be an aid to the detection of irrigular heart beat that would allow them to go to there doctor to get it checked out. With this feature you could save lives.

I and many others have liked, posted, complained and begged Fitbit to allow/enable notifications. This is a request to Fitbit to enable, at the choosing of the user of the Fitbit tracker (Charge, Charge HR, Alta, Charge 2, & Surge) to have what ever app notifications they want for both iPhone and Android devices display on the Fitbit tracker screen. This idea suggestion eliminates the need for individual idea suggestions for types of phones or apps that people want to get notifications for, we want the choice to select which ones (like third-party apps such as BitTicker have done for us in the past). I own a Charge HR, but I want this for all Fitbit trackers, not just mine. Please give this a thumbs up and post comments on your agreement with this. (And yes, we all know you want Whatsapp part of these choices, don't complain about those of us that still use SMS). It's about CHOICE of apps, not just Whatsapp.
A recent 10-08-2016 moderator (AndrewFitbit) post on the 'More Notifications' suggestion is what inspired me to do this as it suggests we divide up and make suggestions on each app feature and each device and each tracker. That is counterproductive. We need to unite!

Please could you add a Tile to the Sense 2/Versa 4 which shows how many of the active hours I have completed for today's Hourly Activity goal, and how many steps are left if it is not yet complete for that hour?

It would be great if music controls could be added to the Charge 5 I have this on my Versa 1 which is several years old now General music controls are great as you can use them whilst in an exercise If that's not technically possible, then the Spotify Controls App for the Charge 4 being made available for the Charge 5 would make sense

In the presence of PACs, an ECG test will correctly measure the heart rate, but the heart rate sensors report a heart rate that is roughly half that value. An example of that is me getting an ECG heart rate of 87 bpm but, at the same time, getting an invalid low heart rate notification of 44 - 50 bpm and instantaneous HR readings of around 45 bpm.

I had 2 charger 3 in my fam, and of a few days i have 2 versa - that is 4 users. Am I supposed to pay for premium features 4 times?! No way! Even if i pull kids in, not every model is eligible! I want my whole family to be under one, and have a serious price break! I think a family should be able to share one program or have a much better price and the ability to share one family plan! If you insist on removing functionality - even though it's all calculated from our data - at least set an approachable price on it!

With the upgrade the app will no longer work unless Background Location Permission is allowed all the time, whether the app is in use or not. What possible justification do you have for that? Now Fitbit feels like spyware. Is this so Google can create location based advertising or what? Moderator edit: Clarified subject

Hi, It would be great if users could change the daily reset of stats to a different hour. We night owls who go sleep late after midnight now have to calculate the differences in our heads and that's not ideal. Thanks!

One of the most valuable uses of the Fitbit Ace is when we are traveling internationally. My understanding is that the Ace Pass LTE only works in the US. I use Google Fi and know how seamless international roaming is with it. Would be a huge benefit to for the kids to be able to use the watch internationally too. I would happily pay an intl addon.

I see a lot of posts on the Forums to bring back Google Assistant to Sense 2. While I am a huge proponent of this, not everyone has Google Assistant. Not everyone has Alexa either, and very few of us have both. Those of us who do have both tend to use one or the other. Giving us the option to choose might bring in more potential customers.
